FAT Checklist

We are fully aware of the fact that machinery that is not fully tested can
represented an increased hazard (e.g. mechanical or electrical failure). Thus,
participation in FAT`s (Factory Acceptance Tests) requires extra attention.

Let’s be proactive and do what it takes to avoid anybody getting injured during
FAT`s in our Ivar Aasen Project.
You shall use this FAT checklist before, and during, FAT visits.

Check Checkpoint Comments

 Be well prepared with the FAT test
program/ schedule prior to arrival on site
 Check before you start traveling if the
supplier supplies adequate PPE. If in
doubt, bring your own
 Attend the FAT locations “Introduction
for visitors”
 Be Proactive, ask one or more of the PSI
questions to reveal hidden risks prior to
testing
 Ask when in doubt
Relevant PPE i.e. fire retardant
coverall, safety boots, hearing and eye
protection, helmet.
Remember: It is ok to use more PPE
than the supplier demands.
Ask for this if not offered.
PSI – Personal Safety Involvement
PSI questions,- see page 2
If you are in doubt, ask questions

 Intervene when and where relevant
 Ensure that a SJA or a Toolbox talk has
been performed prior to the actual test run
 When entering the test room/facility;
stop for a few seconds and look around
 If you are witnessing pressure testing or
similar make sure that you are located at a
safe location in case the equipment fails
 Look out for possible loose objects that
could drop or fall
 Ensure that air, liquid, gas hoses are
properly secured
If you see something that could be
unsafe,- intervene. Ref Cardinal Rules
and Stop Card – see page 3
Note;
It is the supplier`s responsibility to
perform these kind of risk assessments
Look for all potential hazards, not just
for operations connected to the FAT,
(lifting operations, forklift trucks, etc)
Note:
Safe distance might not be sufficient.
Remember also “the eight energy
sources” – see page 4
Vibration during start up and running
phase could cause dropped objects
incidents
Loose and whipping hoses are a major
risk and can cause serious injuries.
